Another bride, another June Another sunny honeymoon Another season, another reason For makin' whoopee A lot of shoes, a lot of rice The groom is nervous, he answers twice Its really killin' that he's so willin' to make whoopee |
Picture a little love nest Down where the roses cling Picture the same sweet love nest And think what a year can bring He's washin' dishes and baby clothes He's so ambitious he even sews But don't forget folks, Thats what you get folks, for makin' whoopee |

I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes when you take you got to give so live and let live or let go I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden. I could promise you things like big diamond rings but you don't find roses growing on stocks of clover so better think it over well if sweet talking you would make it come true I'd give you the world right now on a silver platter but what would it matter so smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy come along and share the good times while we can. |
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes. I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon but if that's what it takes to hold you I'd just as soon let you go but there's one thing I want you to know you better look before you leap still water runs deep and there won't always be someone there to pull you out and you know what I'm talkin' about so smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy come on and share the good times while we can. I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes. |

Call me irresponsible - call me unreliable Throw in undependable too Do my foolish alibis bore you? Well I'm not too clever - I just adore you |
Call me unpredictable - tell me I'm impractical Rainbows I'm inclined to pursue Call me irresponsible - yes I'm unreliable But it's undeniably true - I'm irresponsibly mad for you |

Kids! I don't know what's wrong with these kids today! Kids! Who can understand anything they say! Kids! They are disobedient, disrespect oafs, Noisy, crazy, sloppy, lazy loafers! And while we're on the subject Kids! You can talk and talk til your face is blue! Kids! But they still do just what they want to do! Why can't they be like we were? Perfect in every way! What's the matter with kids today? |

Let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees And the flowers and the trees And the moon up above And a thing called "Love" Let me tell ya 'bout the stars in the sky And a girl and a guy And the way they could kiss On a night like this When I look into your big brown eyes It's so very plain to see That it's time you learned about the facts of life Starting from A to Z Let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees And the flowers and the trees And the moon up above And a thing called "Love" |
<instrumental interlude> When I look into your big brown eyes It's so very plain to see That it's time you learned about the facts of life Starting from A to Z Let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees And the flowers and the trees And the moon up above And a thing called "Love" Let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees And the flowers and the trees And the birds and the bees And the flowers and the trees 'bout the birds and the bees |

You'll never know how much I really love you. You'll never know how much I really care. Listen, Do you want to know a secret, Do you promise not to tell, whoa oh, oh. Closer, Let me whisper in your ear, Say the words you long to hear, I'm in love with you. Listen, Do you want to know a secret, Do you promise not to tell, whoa oh, oh. |
Closer, Let me whisper in your ear, Say the words you long to hear, I'm in love with you. I've known the secret for a week or two, Nobody knows, just we two. Listen, Do you want to know a secret, Do you promise not to tell, whoa oh, oh. Closer, Let me whisper in your ear, Say the words you long to hear, I'm in love with you. |

I took my troubles down to Madame Rue You know that gypsy with the gold-capped tooth She's got a pad down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine Sellin' little bottles of Love Potion Number Nine I told her that I was a flop with chics I've been this way since 1956 She looked at my palm and she made a magic sign She said "What you need is Love Potion Number Nine" |
She bent down and turned around and gave me a wink
She said "I'm gonna make it up right here in the sink" It smelled like turpentine, it looked like Indian ink I held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drink I didn't know if it was day or night I started kissin' everything in sight But when I kissed a cop down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine He broke my little bottle of Love Potion Number Nine |

Oh the weather outside is frightful But the fire is so delightful And since we've no place to go Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! It doesn't show signs of stopping And I brought some corn for popping The lights are turned way down low Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! |
When we finally kiss goodnight How I'll hate to go out in the storm But if you really hold me tight All the way home I'll be warm. The fire is slowly dying And my dear, we're still goodbying But as long as you love me so, Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow |

Oh, there's no place like home for the holidays, 'Cause no matter how far away you roam When you pine for the sunshine Of a friendly face For the holidays, you can't beat Home, sweet home I met a man who lives in Tennessee And he was headin' for Pennsylvania And some home made pumpkin pie From Pennsylvania folks a travelin' down To Dixie's sunny shore From Atlantic to Pacific, gee The traffic is terrific Oh there's no place like home For the holidays, 'cause no matter How far away you roam If you want To be happy in a million ways For the holidays, you can't beat Home, sweet home |

I'm gonna make a change, for once in my life It's gonna feel real good, Gonna make a difference, gonna make it right. As I turn up the collar on my favorite winter coat This wind is blowing my mind I see the kids in the streets, with not enough to eat Who am I to be blind? Pretending not to see their needs A summer disregard, a broken bottle top And a one man soul They follow each other on the wind ya' know 'Cause they got nowhere to go That's why I want you to know I'm starting with the man in the mirror I'm asking him to change his ways And no message could have been any clearer If you wanna make the world a better place Take a look at yourself, and then make a change I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love It's time that I realize That there are some with no home, not a nickel to loan Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone? A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart And a washed-out dream They follow the pattern of the wind ya' see 'Cause they got no place to be That's why I'm starting with me |
I'm starting with the man in the mirror I'm asking him to change his ways And no message could have been any clearer If you wanna make the world a better place Take a look at yourself, and then make a change I'm starting with the man in the mirror I'm asking him to change his ways And no message could have been any clearer If you wanna make the world a better place Take a look at yourself and then make that.. CHANGE! I'm starting with the man in the mirror I'm asking him to change his ways No message could have been any clearer Take a look at yourself and then make the change You gotta get it right, while you got the time 'Cause when you close your heart You can't close your... your mind! That man, with the man in the mirror That man I'm asking him to change his ways You know... No message could have been any clearer If you wanna make the world a better place Take a look at yourself and then make the change I'm gonna make a change, it's gonna feel real good! Just lift yourself, you've got to stop it, No message could have been any clearer If you wanna make the world a better place Take a look at yourself and then make the change |

Give my regards to Broadway, Remember me to Herald Square, Tell all the gang at Forty-second Street That I will soon be there Whisper of how I'm yearning To mingle with that old time throng; Give my regards to old Broadway And say that I'll be there ere long. |

I'm sleeping And right in the middle of a good dream All at once I wake up From something that keeps knocking at my brain Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head And spring up in my bed Screaming out the words I dread I think I love you This morning I woke up with this feeling I didn't know how to deal with And so I just decided to myself I'd hide it to myself And never talk about it And didn't I go and shout it When you walked in to the room I think I love you I think I love you So what am I so afraid of I'm afraid that I'm not sure of A love there is no cure for I think I love you Isn't that what life is made of though it worries me to say I never felt this way |
I don't know what I'm up against I don't know what it's all about I've got so much to think about Hey! I think I love you So what am I so afraid of I'm afraid that I'm not sure of A love there is no cure for I think I love you Isn't that what life is made of though it worries me to say I never felt this way Believe me You really don't have to worry I only wanna make you happy And if you say, hey go away, I will But I think better still I better stay around and love you Do you think I have a case Let me ask you to your face Do you think you love me I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you I think I love you |

I know I stand in line until you think you have the time To spend an evening with me And if we go someplace to dance, I know that there's a chance You won't be leaving with me Then afterwards we drop into a quiet little place And have a drink or two And then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid Like I love you |
I can see it in your eyes, that you despise the same old lines You heard the night before And though it's just a line to you, for me it's true And never seemed so right before I practice every day to find some clever lines to say To make the meaning come through But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late And I'm alone with you |
| The time is right your perfume fills my head, the stars get red And oh the night's so blue And then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid Like I love you | |

(Words by Paul Williams; Music by Barbra Streisand) Love, soft as an easy chair Love, fresh as the morning air One love that is shared by two I have found with you. Like a rose under the April snow I was always certain love would grow Love, ageless and evergreen Seldom seen by two. You and I will make each night a first Every day a beginning Spirits rise and their dance is unrehearsed They warm and excite us 'Cause we have the brightest love Two lights that shine as one Morning glory and the midnight sun. Time won't let us sail above Time won't change the meaning of one love, Ageless and ever, Evergreen. |

Very superstitious, writing's on the wall Very superstitious, ladders bout' to fall Thirteen month old baby, broke the lookin' glass Seven years of bad luck, the good things in your past When you believe in things that you don't understand Then you suffer Superstition ain't the way Very superstitious, wash your face and hands Rid me of the problem, do all that you can Keep me in a daydream, keep me goin' strong You don't wanna save me, sad is my song |
When you believe in things that you don't understand Then you suffer Superstition ain't the way, yeh, yeh Very superstitious, nothin' more to say Very superstitious, the devil's on his way Thirteen month old baby, broke the lookin' glass Seven years of bad luck, good things in your past When you believe in things that you don't understand Then you suffer Superstition ain't the way, no, no, no |

I have often dreamed Of a far-off place Where a great warm welcome Will be waiting for me Where the crowds will cheer When they see my face And a voice keep saying This is where I'm meant to be I will find my way I can go the distance I'll be there someday If I can be strong I know ev'ry mile Will be worth my while I would go most anywhere to feel like I belong Down an unknown road, To embrace my fate |
Through that road may wander It will lead me to you And a thousand years, would be worth the wait It might take a lifetime, but somehow I'll see it through And I won't look back And I'll stay on track No, I won't accept defeat It's an uphill slope I am on my way I can go the distance I don't care how far Somehow I'll be strong I know ev'ry mile Will be worth my while I would go most anywhere to feel like I belong |

It's a world of laughter A world of tears It's a world of hopes And a world of fears There's so much that we share That it's time we're aware It's a small world after all There is just one moon And one golden sun And a smile means Friendship to ev'ryone Though the mountains divide And the oceans are wide It's a small world after all It's a small world after all It's a small world after all It's a small world after all It's a small, small world |

'Though we gotta say goodbye for the summer
Darling I promise you this: "I'll send you all my love ev'ry day in a letter Sealed with a kiss" Guess it's gonna be a cold lonely summer But I'll fill the emptiness I'll send you all my dreams ev'ry day in a letter Sealed with a kiss |
I'll see you in the sunlight I'll hear your voice everywhere I'll run to tenderly hold you But darling you won't be there I don't wanna say goodbye for the summer Knowing the love we'll miss Oh let us make a pledge to meet in September And seal it with a kiss |
